Housing
Are you new to the region and looking for a room or an apartment? You’ll find many suitable offers on Immonet, Immobilienscout24 or Immowelt. For shared apartments, it’s worth taking a look at WG-gesucht. A cost-effective alternative is student dormitories, which are listed by the Studierendenwerk Würzburg and Schweinfurt.
If you have a limited budget, you can also inquire about subsidized housing. Budenheld offers current listings for social housing in Lower Franconia – a sensible option especially for people with low incomes.
Living in the Countryside – Why It Can Be Attractive in Mainfranken
In larger cities, living space is generally more limited and expensive than in the surrounding communities. Thanks to the excellent bus and train connections, it can therefore be quite interesting to look for a new home a bit outside the city. The public transport association Nahverkehr Mainfranken (NVM) offers you the perfect solution, true to the motto “one network. One ticket. One tariff. For the entire Mainfranken region”.
From Himmelstadt, it takes 20 minutes by train to get to the city of Würzburg. Trains run hourly.
From Würzburg, it takes 23 minutes by train to get to the city of Schweinfurt and 50 minutes to the city of Bad Kissingen.
As a student, you can even use public transport for free with your semester ticket. But be careful: There are different validity areas for the semester tickets in Würzburg and Schweinfurt.
For even more flexibility, you also have the option to purchase a discounted Deutschlandticket.
But good connections are not only available in the cities. The smart and flexible mobility service callheinz is an offering from the districts in Mainfranken and gets you quickly and easily from A to B even there.
